The Wolf Conspiracy
20 Dec 2017Bam
I may have been out in the black for too long, I may have spent too many hours hunting pirates but I think I am smarting to get paranoid. It all started several months ago when I picked up a ex-CQC hot shot pilot from Van Maanen's Star looking to see the galaxy. She had a nice name, Symphony, so I hired her, she wouldn't tell me her last name, but I was happy with Symphony.
She was keen and very chatty, always asking questions. What does this do? How to I make this turn faster? Can I have a go with the mother ship? That sorta thing. We got on well and she learnt fast, it wasn't long before she was pretty deadly flying my Anaconda, usually only after I had been on the Gin.
It was at about this time that she started asking a lot more questions about my pay masters, the Hutton Orbital Truckers while also giving me little insights into her previous life. She apparently had some distant family ties to someone who worked for Hutton Orbital, someone quite important, someone she hadn't seen since she was a little girl with her sister. She wouldn't ever say who this person was, whenever I asked it would just end the conversation.
We got on well, we made buckets of credits and I often thought that she would leave and buy her own starship, she had enough money put by to buy and A-Rate a decent Python. She never spoke about going her own way, just more and more questions about the Truckers.
I am almost out of fuel and need to dock, I will carry this story on later.................
